MALACCA: The state is going ahead with plans to build a revolving tower within the buffer zone in Bandar Hilir.

Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Ali Rustam said the tower project costing RM15mil would be built opposite the tourist police station near the Studthuys.

"We are doing tests for piling work now. The project will begin once TNB, TM and Syarikat Air Melaka have shifted their underground pipes and cables," he told reporters after the state government meeting Thursday.

Mohd Ali said he had directed the three companies to complete their pipe and cable relocation within one month.

"The work to shift the pipes and cables has held back the project," he said, adding that the tower was expected to be completed in a year.

yeah, I saw that construction too. As u said, hopefully it's the five star hotel that u mentioned. But my father said it is going to be a waterfront project, hopefully that is a false statement.

What I was told is going to be a water front project as well.If it is,i hope they will build a proper project rather than those built and abandoned projects+_+ However,it could also be the new low rise Four seasons hotel

The below news stated that there is a 24 hours shopping complex planned near ayer keroh toll. Not sure whether it is a government owned complex. Government owned shopping complexes like Melaka Sentral Bazaar are not my favourite place to shop normally.
